Biography
Milutin Nedic was born on 26 October 1882 in Sopot, Kingdom of Serbia, and he was the brother of Milan Nedic. He joined the Royal Serbian Army in 1901 and served in World War I, and from 1937 to 1938 he served as the Chief-of-Staff of the Royal Yugoslav Army shortly before World War II, forming a war plan against Nazi Germany following its Anschluss annexation of Austria. He led the Yugoslav 2nd Army Group during the April War with Nazi Germany, and he was imprisoned by Nazi Germany after Yugoslavia was occupied. In 1942, Nedic was allowed to return to Belgrade as a collaborator like his brother Milan, but in 1944 he retreated to Austria as the Balkans were liberated. Nedic committed suicide in 1945, a year before his brother.
